Welcome To Our Recruitment Page

You are one step closer to joining our family!

 Before applying to Professional Carers, we recommend exploring the sections below, which include our current vacancies, employee perks, a video showing a typical day in care, and details about the training and support you can expect to receive.


Our roles are available across multiple locations, so please scroll to find the area and position that best suits you.


Working in care is challenging but incredibly rewarding, and we are looking for individuals whose attitude and behaviours align with our core values – C.A.R.E.

Duties may include supporting with personal care needs, such as helping them shower or take their medication, as well as helping them to take part in a wide range of special interests and activities that support their health and wellbeing e.g. crafts, watching the football, drama, musical evenings, gardening, shopping trips and social occasions.

You don’t necessarily need formal qualifications to become a care worker. What’s really important though are your values. 


We might ask that you have qualifications showing good English and numeracy skills such as GCSE A-C in English and Maths. It might also be helpful to have a social care qualification such as a Diploma in Health and Social Care. Don’t worry if you don’t have these qualifications though – if you’re interested, you can work towards them once you start the job.
